Aggression has been a problem many people talk about, especially about its cause, or its intervention. Every people has aggression, including young children. People believe that young children’s aggression isn’t dangerous, so they only focus doing interventions in adult or adolescence aggression and disregard interventions in childhood aggression.

Fairytales give children good impacts that related to the aggression’s causes. Fairytales-reading is familiar thing in Indonesian culture. According to that, researcher formulates a research’s problem, that is, is there difference of aggression in young children that get fairytales reading and in young children that don’t get fairytales reading before sleep from their mother.

Data are collected by questionnaire (aggression scale and fairytale reading’s categorization). Validity test of aggression scale find 6 invalid items and 68 valid items from 74 items, with reliability coefficient’s score is 0,989. Data are analyzed with independent sample t-test. Data analysis’s result shows that data are normal and homogen. Score of significant in t-test is 0,000 (p=0,05). It means that research’s hypothesis who state there is difference of aggression in young children that get fairytales reading and in young children that don’t get fairytales reading before sleep from their mother, is accepted.

Adolescents were susceptible to problems and negativity during the pandemic times. There was an increase in adolescents’ consumption of unhealthy foods by 36%, an increase in body weight by 48%, and a decrease in physical activity and exercise by 43% globally. To function optimally in this situation, adolescents needed to do healthy lifestyle behaviour. Adolescents tended to do this when they could love themselves, which was carried out by applying self-compassion and participating in activities that benefit health. This study was conducted in 2021 and aimed to determine the relationship between self-compassion and adolescent participation in healthy lifestyle behaviour. This study used a cross-sectional design.
